Refining Your Role in the Revolution

How will you make change in 2019?

Each of us has tremendous power to help make the world over. Yet it can be hard to know where to begin—until we set an intention that can illuminate our next right action.

Join Buddhist spiritual activist Kate Johnson and social systems change alchemist Antoinette Klatzky in an experiential workshop to help you crystallize your vision of a more just world and powerfully embody your unique contribution to bringing that world into reality. Through a series of group discussions, independent journaling, and visualization, explore your own personal balance between intention and resolution. Refine your role in the revolution through wise reflection and deep dialogue, and let your intention light the way forward.
